How does Benjamin Franklin use an analogy to express his viewpoint in this cartoon? He compares the colonies to pieces of a snak

e because it uses a biblical allusion that most of his readers will be familiar with. He compares the colonies to pieces of a snake because they are treacherous and will never be able to help each other.

Answer: C. He compared the colonies to pieces of a snake because he believes the colonies will be ineffective unless they work together

Explanation:

His caption says "Join, or Die". This shows that Franklin feels that the colonies cannot survive if they are divided. A snake would not be able to divide if it was separated into different parts just as the colonies will not be able to survive if they do not work together. It would be easier for the British to keep their control if they only had to fight one colony at a time instead of all of them together working towards a common goal.

Answer: He compares the colonies to pieces of a snake because he believes the colonies will be ineffective unless they work together.

Explanation:

During the French and Indian War, Benjamin Franklin published through his newspaper, a picture titled ''Join or Die''. It was a call to colonial unity between the colonies in the fight against the French and their Indian allies.

He represented the colonies as parts of the same snake to show that they all needed each other to survive because a snake that is missing parts cannot very much hope to survive.
